Purpose of the Stream The Swedish academic Torsten Hagerstrand called attention to the importance of time space geography but it is a call that sociologists have singularly failed to rise to. The scheduling of social activity has been relatively underproblematised. The purpose of this stream was to correct this neglect in line with current activities in the field of transport and society and mobilities research now taking place. We presented papers that open up the relationship between time, travel and empowerment and papers that address the role of new scheduling technologies such as cell phones in the changing frontiers of daily routines.
